MOST OF US ARE ENCOUNTERING THE SAME PROBLEM AND I SAW A LOT OF PEOPLE FROM EUROPE!
This tells me that the server may have a problem reaching the European server so we'll just have to wait till the guys working on the servers fix it...

I'm trying to download and getting the same error, although I'm from South America.
Win 7 32 bits here.

Not an error, the event will begin tonight at 7PM GMT (or 12PM Pacific DT as said in news). Beta download will work then - correct me if i'm wrong.

I cant wait to put my hands on it.

Yeah I'm getting this too. Why aren't the admins here to reply_
It's 4am for them, sleeping.

Brekster I'm in the same situation and it doesn't work for me.

Meh, I wander what the admins and moderators are doing!_ There very little technical support for this game.
It's 4am for the devs, so sleeping.

I don't have this problem...
When you install the game and directx etc etc after restart, open e.g
C:HawkenInstalledHawkenFilesBinariesWin32 and open " HawkenGame-Win32-Shipping " and it works for me Q_q
when i started the launcher, meta error, then i tried again and it started downloading again...
Congratulations, you've found how to launch the client offline. This is mentioned all over in the forums.

I have this issue too... before this, Norton said that the hawken installer gave my desktop 2 Trojans.... Losing faith meteor, losing faith fast....
Problem detected: Using Norton. Solution: Stop using Norton.

It's only a beta, this much I understand.

That being said, I wish there was some kind of response as to why this was happening, and maybe a possible fix.
It's 4am, the devs are asleep before the big weekend. Take a guess as to why you aren't getting a response or a fix.

You can download now, it's just that servers won't be up til that time. However the download servers are being demolished by everyone downloading at once, everyone needs to have some patience.

GAHHHHHH. ERROR. ERROR....I can't play, kill me now! :P. Same issue here, hopefully it is simply down to the beta being offline.

pdt is -7.00 utc http://www.timeandda...nes/na/pdt.html  -> http://24timezones.com/ so for czech republic (me) the server should be online @ 22.00 . Hate the waiting ... I want to hurt your mechs :D

hold on pilots ;-)


ps: if anybody can start the game -> open console -> type in "open dm-andromeda" -> map should load -> open console -> add bots "numberofbots"  (this worked in alpha2 not sure if the map/comands were renamed)

You can open the client by running directly from the exe at:

C:Program Files (x86)MeteorEntertainmentHawkenInstalledHawkenFilesBinariesWin32

Your command worked great - lets me optimize video settings before the beta wooo!

Reporting from Turkey, the issiue is same here as well. :/    It's a client problem probably.  Client can't reach to servers, becouse they are not opened yet. We need to wait till evening i gues.

That's not really a fix, it's just a way of getting into the game offline while the login servers aren't up. It doesn't actually fix the problem at all.
